Bernie Sanders isn't fit to be President. He isn't fit to be leader of this party.

This absolutely shameful display in Nevada demonstrates how utterly reckless and irresponsible he can be. This is his doing; when you inflame passions with words like "revolution" and convince your followers of a grand conspiracy against them, it's virtually impossible to calm them down later.

Bernie Sanders needs to drop out. Not after June 7, not after the roll call at the convention, he needs to drop out now. If he wants any hopes of preserving anything of a good, positive legacy, he needs to call it quits. Frankly, if he doesn't, then Senate Democrats need to strip him of his committee assignments and ostracize him. He entered this race doing some good, but the damage he's starting to do is outweighing it.

The boorish behavior yesterday in NV was exactly the kind of "the rules don't apply to me" stance Sanders has taken throughout this campaign. His thugs are simply imitating their hallowed leader.

He and his campaign are now an embarrassment on every level. He needs to quit before he embarrasses the Democratic Party.

Has he apologized for anything his "millions of followers" as he fondly calls them do? Other than call the protests last week in LA "exactly appropriate" on Maddows's program?
